Chelsea make major Eden Hazard decision amid Real Madrid interest - EXCLUSIVE
CHELSEA are set to make Eden Hazard the highest paid player in the Premier League after he signaled that he is ready to end his career at Stamford Bridge.
Hazard had been stalling on signing a new deal amid a flurry of speculation linking him to Real Madrid, but he is ready to turn his back on the Spanish giants.
Chelsea have been waiting for more than a year for the Belgian star to put pen to paper on a £300,000-a-week contract – but are now willing to go much higher after his impressive start to the new season.
They want to re-open talks before Christmas and are ready to go as high as £350,000-a-week if Hazard will commit himself for the next four or five years.
Hazard – who is out of contract in 18 months – currently earns £200,000-a-week and has fallen down the list of the Premier League’s top earners.
